Since I started using HP ad program, I noticed that my earnings on adsense are nearly nonexistent. While the HP ad program is consistently making income, adsense's CTR, ppc, and everything else is super low.
Is this normal?
Please forgive my ignorance, if I am missing something.
That sounds like what some other hubbers are experiencing. I tried it on my regular account.
After I had reached payout in March, I turned the HP ad program on for about a week. I still had some AdSense clicks but not nearly enough to make up for income I used to get with AdSense alone. On the HP ad program I earned an average of only about 40 cents per day.
I turned the HP ads off and the very next day made nearly $12 on AdSense. Which is a good day for me. So, the HP ad programs didn't work for me. Others are experiencing good results. I didn't.
Later on, if HubPages wlll allow us to pick and choose which hubs we want to add the HP ads too, I might try it again. I don't know.
I couldn't comment on whether or not this is 'normal' but it is the same thing that I found when I activated the HP ads.
I have deactivated the HP ads now just to see if things go back up.
I only had the ad program on for a short time and saw a drastic difference decline with Adsense so I turned it off. I'm having record days with Adsense now...not willing to chance it. I appreciate the program and I'm sure it is beneficial for a lot of hubbers but not so much for me. I'll stick with my Adsense earnings.

A few days ago, I noticed that a lot of people were talking about changing from HP Ad Program to Google AdSense. I had tried that a few years ago, but switched back pretty quickly because I earned better with HP. Recently though, since my earnings have dropped so much, I figured I didn't have much...

Some people have said they've turned off HP Ads and just use Adsense and actually make more money from Adsense. I'm considering trying that out and was curious how much more some of you are making just through Adsense. Fifty percent more? Twice as much? Triple? Quadruple?

I've heard people talk about turning off Adsense to earn more from the Hubpages program, but I'm really confused about how this works. Does HubPages pay better than Adsense? I thought Adsense was required to make money on HubPages and the two incomes were added up in your daily earnings. Can...

I know we're not supposed to discuss specific earnings, but for those who have been around a while, which ad program seems to earn more, the HP Ad Program or Adsense? I'm still undecided as to which one to use.

My CPM has been very high compared to when I was writing on Hubpages back in 2011 when I had record breaking views on another account. My CPM is twice as high now; and more recently, 4x higher! It's kind of hard for me to believe. Unfortunately, even with higher views and higher CPM, I am barely...
